yese its true, a grain of sand had temporaraly killed my psp. though this happend almost a year ago i though i might as well post it. i was out on vacation during the summer on canada's east coast. then my psp stopped reading my games, but it still did everything else like the interenet and play music. it was second hand and the Warranty was long past expired. all it did was make a odd grinding noise. after fooling around with it for a few days, it still didnt work, so i gave up. then about 3 moths after the vacation, i decide to take it completely apart, why not it wasnt going to fix its self so i might as well have some fun with it. i take it completely apart and i didnt notice anything really odd. i tried to run a game with it oppen to see what happens. i notice that one of the gears that make the disc spin only moved slightly. after flicking it, it span then jammed in the same place. i looked closely and saw what looked like a piece of tiny fluff in between the teeth of the gear. i poked it out and guess what? it worked. the odd thing about is that ive never heard of anyone having problems like that before. i have looked on the internet and countless fourm sites and no one has seamed to had have the same problem .

the point in all this is that i wanted to know if anyone on this site has heard of this happening or have had simular problems with there psp and maybe fixed it.

openly discuss psp problems and malfuctions, that you may or may not have fixed.

My psp stopped reading disks, to. It just scratches the hell out of them. Mine broke for one of the two reasons:

1) I left it in a room with one of those cans that fill entire rooms with foggy bug spray
2) I never learned how to fully turn it off, I just put it on sleep mode and it over heated


I have yet to find a way to fix this, I'm not really sure what's broken...sorry.
